Congratulations to Jordan and Ben Cargill, who where married at the Galloway Chapel in Ferndale, Arkansas on October 20. They live in Dallas and we are so happy they choose Ocken Photography to celebrate with them and a very small collection of friends and family. We are honored to be a part of their day. Enjoy!

Bob Ocken loves to shoot brides! And nobody photographs brides like he does. Ocken Photography only creates a handful of these caliber portraits a year, why not make your portrait one of them? Bob’s clientele are some the best and most exclusive brides in Arkansas and around the country. Bob says, ” I love pushing the boundaries of my creativity and to me this portrait feels like it was shot in the Caribbeans. But it was shot using only one flash in very exotic backyard in central Arkansas, no flight necessary.” Enjoy!

It’s very funny, I shot a photograph of a Rhino at the Little Rock, Arkansas Zoo in 1996 when I was working or the Associated Press. I keep seeing that photo all over the place, I just saw it in the Houston Chronical. I have seen it in papers in Europe. I seemed to be haunted by a photo o a rhino, and that’s a good thing! What do you think?

It’s difficult to believe that I have been working with CS Brides for 5 years already, which means I have been working in Chicago for 11 years now! Congratulations to Chicago Social Brides on a beautiful 5th anniversary edition and a great launch party. We all look forward to another 5!

Bob and Chris were absolutely amazing! They are very flexible and quick to respond to emails. The pictures they take are stunning and capture the most intimate details. They are very personable. They made the rehearsal dinner and the wedding day so much fun. They went above and beyond to make sure the weekend was perfect. Their energy is awesome! They easily meshed with our families like they were apart it of from day one! I will definitely use Ocken Photography again! - Bailey

5.0/5.0 - Chris Ocken was our wedding photographer and wonderful to work with on our wedding day! He was very professional yet had a fun-loving personality and most importantly got some amazing shots!! We even had a mother that was a little demanding on how/where we should shoot photos and Chris handled her in a sweet but firm way. He captured all the great memories of our wedding - we LOVE all our photos and we would use him again! - Amber

5.0/5.0 - Chris and his assistant Mona were beyond amazing! Words cannot even begin to describe how well they handled our family! Everyone thought they were long time friends with us as how easily they interacted with everyone and how comfortable the made everyone feel. Chris and Mona did an AMAZING job of managing our crazy family (both my husband's family and my family consists of divorced and remarried parents (some of whom do not get along the best). He did a great job getting all our photos done so we could enjoy some time together even after pictures before the reception started. We are so happy to have found Chris. We intend to use his services as we grow our family to document our lives together through images! - Lauren
